Move made --Philip Baird Shearer (talk) 14:02, 19 February 2008 (UTC)

Charlie Johnson (basketball) → Charles Johnson (basketball) — IMHO, this page should be moved, because most sources seem to use his full name. For example, see the difference in Google hits: "Charlie Johnson" basketball -wikipedia (7,190) and "Charles Johnson" basketball -wikipedia (32,300). In addition, these two articles from the San Francisco Chronicle, use only his full name as opposed to his nickname. This leads me to conclude that he was more often referred to by Charles than Charlie, and according to Wikipedia policy, we should go with the most common name. —Bash Kash (talk) 01:18, 12 February 2008 (UTC)
